“Excellent service from start to finish. The survey was thorough and professional, with honest, evidence-based advice rather than trying to sell unnecessary work. I came away with complete peace of mind.”

“Excellent service throughout. Ashton came out to look at an issue raised on a part-exchange survey and, rather than recommend expensive remediation, told me honestly there was nothing wrong with the wall. Great to have an honest discussion.”

Local knowledge

Why Ringwood homes get damp

River, forest and a lot of older homes. These are the damp problems we see in and around Ringwood.

The Avon floodplain

Homes near the river sit on wet ground, putting old damp proof courses under pressure and causing tide marks on ground-floor walls.

Shaded, slow-drying walls

Bungalows and houses among the trees around Ringwood get little sun on some walls, so they stay damp and grow mould and algae.

Subfloor damp and rot

Suspended timber floors with blocked air bricks stay damp underneath, leading to wet rot and woodworm in joists.

What we do

Services we provide in Ringwood

Every service is delivered by our own in-house team and backed by our 25-year guarantee.

Local specialists

Your local damp, mould & timber team in Ringwood

Ringwood sits on the edge of the New Forest in the Avon valley, and the river's floodplain runs right along the west side of the town. Homes near the Market Place, West Street and the river are often older, with solid brick walls and timber floors, and they sit on wetter ground. Poulner and the newer parts of town have family homes from the last 60 years, and nearby St Leonards and Ashley Heath have many bungalows set among trees. Shade from trees, damp ground and cold walls all add up to condensation and mould, while the older homes are more likely to have rising damp or decayed floor timbers. Our in-depth survey works out which applies to your home.
